Advertising Age published the monthly employment report for US advertising, public relations, and related services—and here’s the topline summary:
U.S. employment in the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) classification of advertising, PR and related services declined to 494,600 jobs in September based on seasonally adjusted figures, a loss of 800 jobs.
Agency employment could face more challenges after Omnicom Group completes its acquisition of rival Interpublic Group of Cos. in the coming weeks. Omnicom is expected to reduce staffing for the combined company as it pursues cost reductions that it has promised Wall Street.
